ON Just Broke an Anchor Pin

So while adjust the rear shoes on my SA one of the adjusting things broke off.
I found that they are called anchor pins and see that they are NLA from Mazda... A few eBay vendors are selling them for $100+ which I find quite pricey.

My question is: there obviously were other cars that had manually adjusted rear drums... does anybody know of one I can steal the anchor pins from?

Does anybody know where I can get these or something like these for a reasonable cost?

I got a whole rear end off of a 79 just so I could grab those anchor pins and the brake lines
from it. It only had 33,000 on the rear end.
